Have you also set up your payment details again as this needs doing as well as paying the outstanding bill ?

If your services are restricted they won’t be switched back on until any arrears Sky believe you owe have been paid and you’ve also set up a new continuous payment method. Until then any calls to Sky will only prompt you to pay.

If a payment is 2+ weeks overdue you will have to pay the next bill as well.

If payments are 56+ days overdue Sky can fully terminate your subscription (but you’ll still owe the arrears).

If this is part of a credit agreement purchase (for Sky Mobile or Sky Glass) non payment can see the credit agreement cancelled at which point the full amount becomes due in one payment.

Otherwise, once your full payment has cleared and is in Sky’s account your services should be reinstated, but this may not be instant. Any payment you make over a weekend or on a Bank Holiday won’t be processed until the following week.

You should be able to pay the bill and set up your direct debit via the MySky app or online using this link

How did you make the payment, if used a debit or credit card this will be show as pending payment on your bank account yesterday. Apart from from the fact that also need reset up you direct debit ect, the payment needs to clear your bank first before Sky will reinstate your service. With debit/ credit card payments this takes a day or so to happen, so probably your service will not be restored until about Wednesday or Thursday at the earliest.
